Presentation: Bonsai on a Dime – by Rebecca ‘Mouse’ O’Linn
Ever wanted to learn the art of Bonsai but thought it would be too expensive and have strict rules? Here is your chance to enter the wonder that is Bonsai. This presentation will show you how to utilize everyday objects to cut costs and boost your artistic bonsai talent! Resources can be found in thrift stores, hardware stores & backyards. Learn about sources that provide ideas, materials, and additional information for you to take home.

Ken is loading up the tour bus with some of his stock, and making a stop here in Columbus. We will be able to purchase trees of many types and sizes for our collections and projects He will be bringing a variety of stock in wide ranges of sizes-

• Demo and help with wiring, cutting back and styling.
• Discuss "leaving wire grow into the trunks" and have examples of how these develop. w you have Twisting Junipers coming up.
• Discuss and have that available with some un twisted and some in various stages of twisted development. (knowing you have some Twisting Junipers coming up.)
• Big topic or overall topic would be developing stock and the time necessary to produce Show worthy pieces? With a good variety of stock and different ages and in different stages of development, it will be obvious seeing them set out how to go about tasks and the stages in between starting with younger stock and getting to something recognizable as a Bonsai.
• Prices will range from $1.00 to $100+ with a bunch in the $2-3.00 range.
• As far as topics, bring your questions I will address any and all.
